mozo Posted Wednesday at 18:36 Share Posted Wednesday at 18:36 Normally I'd be getting pretty excited about the game by now, but this week it just feels insignificant. That said, Liam would undoubtedly want us to win, and I hope the lads can put a really determined performance for him. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HengroveReds Posted Wednesday at 19:39 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:39 Interesting that no player has done a press conference as usual - defo hit the camp hard this news I think, hope we can get the 3 points or put in a bloody good performance which LM can see from home and be proud 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Journalist Posted Wednesday at 19:45 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:45 He came across really well there, huge credit to him. Ditto the local journalists, who I’m often critical of, for getting their tone right too. Not an easy thing but handled well all round.

sglosbcfc Posted Wednesday at 19:50 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:50 I'm sure the support travelling to Boro will be hardcore, what with the distance and cost involved. I hope they really back the team 100% it feels like a time when everyone should come together and I hope Liam feels that togetherness as he goes through these awful times for him and his family.

Blame Reach plc, rather than him, as they clearly don't give a flying fig about covering us properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeoTheCiderHead Posted Wednesday at 20:13 Share Posted Wednesday at 20:13 (edited) It wasn’t the young Bristol Post chap (Pepe Lacey) as he left last week. It was most likely Tristan Cork as the latest report is by him. Agreed - he was utterly shit. On a lighter note regards Hogg, the little that he did talk about the season so far, he sounded like a North East version of Manning - coming out with the exact same phrases. They really are joined at the hip. Edited Wednesday at 20:13 by GeoTheCiderHead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be the hardcore but you’d think the club would have done more to get supporters up there in light of what’s happened and the players needing our support more than ever. £45 for a season ticket holder to travel via CATS. Scandalous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Dante Posted Wednesday at 21:03 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:03 I normally put the pressers up and was in two minds as whether to do so with this weeks in view of what’s happened, so thanks OP. What I would say is that any analysis of what’s been said today probably shouldn’t go too deep or be critiqued too much. There will be a time for that again, but it’s not today. Outside of the obvious tragic events and questions around that the notes I had were that there was an acknowledgment we need to turn draws into wins, and that we need to score when on top which we haven’t been doing. Team wise Sykes as we know suspended, Pring is an unusual injury and depends on his own healing - no mention on Roberts. Most interesting piece was a small section on Conway where Hogg used the phrase “needed different strategies” after he left. Hogg is a Middlesbrough fan as are all his family. More than anything else though, fair play for him for stepping up in difficult circumstances. 50 minutes ago, GeoTheCiderHead said: It wasn’t the young Bristol Post chap (Pepe Lacey) as he left last week.

Shuffle Posted Wednesday at 21:27 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:27 Respect to Chris Hogg for fronting this up & before anyone says it’s his job, he’s also a human being who is visibly struggling with his mates loss. Time will be a healer for everyone but Saturday maybe a game too soon as a tough task just got harder. Fair play though Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted Wednesday at 21:35 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:35 Well done Hoggy, no critique required of today’s presser. He really could have done without being asked the same Qs a second time around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He usually writes well, whether about City or general news, and I am surprised that his interview style (if it was him) was so shallow.

GrahamC Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Finally got around to listening to it & echo the comments that Hogg did the best he could here in horrible circumstances. Laughable though that Radio Bristol still managed to get out the “blue half of Bristol” myth & the second questioner was just woeful, rambling & asking virtually the same questions as Radio Bris. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've decided that the 'blue half of Bristol' must be the part where they tell rude jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
